98: King realm? Ridiculous!

As the smoke dissipated, Su Changqing stood in his original spot, completely unharmed, his face calm and devoid of any ripples.

Before anyone could express their astonishment, their gazes collectively turned towards Mo Chen.

He was seen with blood staining the corners of his mouth, his entire body tattered and broken, his moon-white monk's robe now ragged and covered in dust, his aura weak and seemingly very frail.

"This... how is this possible? Mo Chen actually lost?"

"My heavens, a top Prodigy at the Peak of the Tiangang Realm was actually defeated by Su Changqing."

"Hiss, such talent is truly terrifying."

"Looking at the younger generation on Heavenly Martial Continent, who can rival him?"

"Terrifying beyond belief, it seems Heavenly Martial Continent is about to undergo a change."

"..."

"..."

Countless Martial Artists shouted in excitement.

This was a scene worthy of being recorded in history.

It also meant that the heavens of Heavenly Martial Continent were about to change.

Su Changqing's strength was too astonishing, one could even say he was unrivaled among the younger generation.

On the deck of the Nangong Family's spirit boat,

Nangong Ling's expression changed slightly, a feeling he couldn't quite describe.

Mo Chen's strength was not much different from his own; Nangong Ling would find it very difficult to defeat him.

But now, the other party had been defeated by Su Changqing.

What did this signify?

It signified that Su Changqing's strength was even greater than his own!

How could this be?

He was merely a Martial Artist in the Early Stage of the Tiangang Realm; how could he possess such strength?

Nangong Ling felt a tightness in his chest.

Nangong Bo, seeing this from the side, smiled faintly.

Clearly, his foolish son was finally beginning to take Su Changqing seriously.

Just as everyone thought the battle was about to end, a sudden anomaly occurred.

Mo Chen's entire body emitted a rich Buddhist Qi, an awe-inspiring aura that shook the heavens, but within that Buddhist Qi, there were faint traces of black energy.

His gilded eyes were exceptionally bright, yet they also held a hint of crimson.

"Not good, Mo Chen is about to Breakthrough!"

Mo Ming instantly recognized Mo Chen's state.

After the battle with Su Changqing just now, he was about to Breakthrough.

"Hmm? Something's not right."

"Although this kid is Breaking through, he seems to be falling into a Heart Demon."

Ancestor Xuan narrowed his eyes and said.

Indeed, although Mo Chen's aura was surging and he showed signs of a Breakthrough, his Heart Demon was already difficult to control, subtly indicating a tendency to fall into a Heart Demon.

At this moment, Mo Chen had only one thought in his mind: to kill Su Changqing!!

This scene was clearly observed by all the powerful experts.

Venerable Master Huineng's face was extremely grim; Mo Chen's Breakthrough was originally a good thing, but his Heart Demon had surged. However, at this moment, he couldn't intervene. He could only hope that Mo Chen could slay Su Changqing, otherwise, Mo Chen would likely be crippled.

Su Changqing watched this scene with interest when suddenly, his Revered Master's voice transmission reached his ear.

"Wicked disciple, don't wait for him to Breakthrough to the King Realm before acting. While he hasn't Breakthrough yet, act immediately."

Su Changqing was taken aback and looked in the direction of his Revered Master.

At this moment, Gu Xiran was somewhat anxious.

After all, if Mo Chen were to Breakthrough to the King Realm, the outcome of this battle would be uncertain.

Therefore, she specifically sent a voice transmission to Su Changqing, urging him to act quickly to prevent the other party's Breakthrough.

Although it might have a negative impact if word got out, what Gu Xiran wanted was for Su Changqing to live; nothing else mattered.

However, Su Changqing merely smiled faintly, shook his head slightly, and made no move.

Breaking through to the King Realm?

Perfect, he also wanted to test the power of the King Realm.

After all, Su Changqing had many trump cards. Even if Mo Chen Breakthrough to the King Realm, what could he do?

He would still be firmly trampled underfoot!

Sneak attacks could be done in secret, but doing it in front of all the Martial Artists in the world would appear somewhat despicable and low-class, so Su Changqing naturally wouldn't do such a thing.

Moreover, he also wanted to test the power of his spatial secret art.

Seeing Su Changqing's inaction, his Revered Master was even more anxious than he was.

Chu Xuan said,

"Revered Master, if Mo Chen Breakthrough to the King Realm, will Little Junior Brother be in any danger?"

Gu Xiran shook her head, saying with great conviction,

"He will be fine. I, your Revered Master, will not let anything happen to him!"

Soon, Mo Chen's aura gradually stabilized, and a terrifying might emanated from his body.

"King Realm!"

"Young King!!"

Everyone who witnessed this scene couldn't help but be startled.

After Mo Chen Breakthrough to the King Realm, his strength surged. Although he had just Breakthrough and hadn't had time to consolidate his cultivation, his strength had increased more than ten times compared to before.

He took a step, and the Buddhist light around him vibrated violently.

"Su Changqing, this monk will send you to Hell!"

Mo Chen clasped his hands together, his eyes flashing with endless killing intent.

To Hell?

Su Changqing scoffed, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"Stupid monk, you don't really think that just because you Breakthrough to the King Realm, you can defeat me, do you?"

As soon as Su Changqing finished speaking, everyone who heard him was stunned.

What the Hell?

Could it be that Su Changqing didn't even care about the King Realm?

One must know that although Mo Chen had just Breakthrough to the Early Stage of the King Realm and his cultivation was not yet stable, his King Realm was different.

When he was at the Peak of the Tiangang Realm, Mo Chen had defied the odds and slain a Martial Artist at the Peak of the Early Stage of the King Realm, fighting across realms, terrifying beyond belief.

And now that he had Breakthrough to the Early Stage of the King Realm, his strength had surged. It was likely that even a Martial Artist in the Late Stage of the King Realm might not be able to defeat him.

How could Su Changqing, a mere Martial Artist in the Early Stage of the Tiangang Realm, possibly win?

"This kid is really arrogant."

Wei Shengwu stroked his chin, the admiration in his eyes long undisguised; of course, he hadn't even intended to hide it.

"Does he still have some trump card?"

Wei Ranzhi murmured with some curiosity.

Even a terrifying existence like the Zhou Tian Twelve Sword Formation had already been unleashed. Could Su Changqing really have other means?

Impossible, right?

Nangong Ling scoffed, looking at Su Changqing with a hint of disdain.

"So foolish. He didn't interrupt Mo Chen when that guy was Breaking through. Now that he has successfully Breakthrough to the King Realm, Su Changqing is dead for sure. I've never seen anyone so foolish."

Nangong Ling admitted to himself that he probably couldn't withstand ten moves from Mo Chen after his Breakthrough to the King Realm.

If it were him, he would have directly interrupted the other party during their Breakthrough.

Although it might be an unfair victory, it was still better than defeat.

Nangong Bo glanced at him from the side.

Ling'er's words were not wrong; they sounded like he had a brain. However, Su Changqing's strength was probably not as simple as it appeared on the surface, which was why he allowed the other party to Breakthrough, intending to defeat Mo Chen honorably.

Thinking of this, Nangong Bo's eyes grew even more curious.

Mo Chen snorted coldly, a hint of disdain in his gilded eyes.

Trump cards?

Hmph!

In the face of absolute strength, everything else was illusory.

After Breakthrough to the King Realm, Mo Chen had absolute confidence in his own strength.

He took a step, and his figure instantly appeared in front of Su Changqing. Mo Chen roared, and a pair of massive palm prints descended.

"Suppress!"
